Hypertension

Implementation Research on Hypertension in Low- and Middle-Income Countries

The program aims to support innovative solutions for the implementation of high blood pressure prevention and control in low- and middle-income countries and aboriginal communities in Canada and abroad. In partnership with the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, the International Development Research Centre and the Canadian Stroke Network; Grand Challenges Canada is taking an integrated innovation approach to hypertension — the coordinated application scientific/technological, social and business innovation to develop solutions to this complex challenge.

Hypertension is a major contributor to the growing global pandemic of cardiovascular disease and stroke. The specific objectives of this funding opportunity are:

To develop a better understanding of key barriers at local, national and international levels that affect hypertension control and to consider how these implementation challenges can be overcome

 

To understand how innovations for hypertension control can be introduced and scaled-up across a range of settings

  

To identify what elements of systems most need to be strengthened to prevent hypertension and its consequences (e.g. stroke), and

 

To improve hypertension control rates while reducing disparities in hypertension control across population sub-groups.
